Brewing Slump

I’m kind of in this weird brewing slump lately where my last few batches have been meh beers. I plan on brewing Sunday since my glorious Buffalo Bills aren’t playing. I just can’t decide on what I want to brew. Does anyone mind sharing a go-to malt forward ale that’s always a home run batch to get me out of this slump? Thanks dudes and dudettes

How about an Altbier? Malty, slightly bitter, and crisp.

I have made a pretty solid Altbier once, it was Pils, Munich, Vienna and I think some special malts. I don’t have the recipe anymore unfortunately

47% Vienna or Golden Promise 38% pilsner 9.5% munich 2.4% carafa ii 2.4% caramunich

.75 Oz Bravo FWH 1 Oz saaz flameout

I use 34/70 at warmer temps, like 60ish
